Two suspects are in police custody following a high speed chase on Thursday, in which cops were able to recover  aToyota Aqua vehicle which was stolen at the C3 Centre in San Fernando.

Reports indicate that around 1 pm, the victim was approached by two armed thieves in the carpark of the shopping facility, who demanded the vehicle be handed over. 

The men then proceeded north along the Sir Solomon Hochoy Highway with the vehicle.

A report was made to the police and an all-points bulletin issued by the Command Centre.

The vehicle was subsequently observed proceeding north along the Uriah Butler Highway in the vicinity of Charlieville, by officers of the Traffic and Highway Patrol Branch.

The officers gave chase and intercepted the vehicle at the Mt. Hope Hospital. Assistance was sought from officers of the Northern and North-Eastern Divisions to locate the two suspects who had fled the vehicle and onto the hospital compound.

They were found hiding on the compound shortly after and arrested in connection with the incident.
